Teen boy allegedly messaged two others to join ‘degrading’ and ‘humiliating’ Sydney gang-rape, court hears

Two 17-year-old boys have been granted bail after allegedly inviting another boy to participate in a "degrading" and "humiliating" gang-rape in Sydney on August 16. The pair are among three teenagers accused of subjecting a teenage girl to an hours-long sexual assault. The alleged instigator, a private school boy, is charged with 11 offences, including six counts of sexual assault in company and three counts of sexual intercourse without consent.

He is accused of taking the victim to a football game and drinking before bringing her back to a home, where he allegedly raped her. The second boy allegedly attended the attack at the co-instigator's request, engaging in non-consensual sex with the victim. The third boy faces two counts of aggravated sexual assault in company. All three teens were granted bail with strict conditions, including daily police reporting, home detention, and no contact with each other or witnesses.
